I took the back tire off a week or so ago and took it to a motorcycle shop to have it replaced (It also had a nail which forced the issue a little early at 5600 miles). The rear tire was pretty straightforward. But the front tire is needing replacement as well. i read the book on the removal but my concern is removing the brake calipers from the rotors? Although I have some mechanical inclinations, I admit, I have never dealt with brakes at all of any sort. Do both sides need to come off as the book says and is it really easy to put the calipers back on? I just want to make sure it's pretty simple otherwise, I'm going to have to ride the bike 25 miles to the same shop rather than just bring the tire in for swapping out? Any advice would be appreciated. Sure would like to see a youtube video on repairs such as this! Hopefully eventually will see some of these. The Vespa 250 I had previously had all kind of video help to guide me through maintenance procedures.
